3D Pen Golf Ball Markers

For all the golf dads, this easy, beginner project makes a practical gift, and a special way to remember a loved one when dad is out on the golf course. Many golfers prefer a completely flat ball marker, and others like to be able to clip it onto their pocket or the brim of their hat. Either version can be made with a 3D pen. 

Supplies:

MYNT3D pen

• Filament colors from the Super 32 pack of ABS: fluorescent red, yellow, fluorescent blue, black

• Scissors


Father's Day gift ideas made with a MYNT3D 3D printing pen



1. Start by heating the MYNT3D pen to 210 degrees C, for ABS filament. Load black filament.

2. Trace the outline of the superhero logo. TIP: For small, detailed outlines like Spiderman and Superman, it is easier to trace directly on the paper template.

3. Fill in the colored portions of the images. For Spiderman, remove the web face portion from the paper, flip over and fill in red on the back side. 

4. To make the clips on the back, start by drawing 2 small squares flat on the back side.

5. Roll a strip of paper and flatten to the depth needed for your clip. Brim clips will be deeper than pocket clips.

6. Place the paper roll slightly over the 2 squares and draw up and over in an arch to form 2 identical clip pieces.
